Generations Selects Appreciation Thread

[Sciflyer]

The new products announcements/leaks are nice and all, but I doubt that I will get the majority of them. I love the idea of Omega Sentinel, but like CVReynolds mentioned, I also didn't get Black Zarak (mainly due to space concerns), so I don't think I will bite on him. Of course I'm saying that now, but I might be swayed once a bunch of clear, detailed pics come along.

 

[The Phazer]

I like the idea of all of these I think, but every selects toy for more than a year has gone on at least 50% discount at this point (including Zarak) so it will be a hard sell to get me to pay full price for them.

 

[lightsyder]

I tell myself that then I get paranoid and think "what if this one sells out or becomes rare?!?!"...lol

 

[Shadewing]

I have never bought a titan at full price, doubt that will change here; but I very much am eager to see what they do with him.

 

[Steevy Maximus]

I think Grand Mal Megatron would be about the only thing that would make me drop full price on a Titan without question.

Grand Mal (aka Vigilem) with core Obsidian?

I wanted Magnificus done years ago from that Titans Return toy only Convex be Scalpel with a a robot to head mode instead of spider to microscope just as a nod to the characters Animated self.
I think at some point we could have Skyquake done in Selects as G2 Dreadwing with Smokescreen renamed Dreadwind, made from Needlenose, or they'll just do the latter and add some rocket launcher to compliment a regular line Prime Dreadwing.

Exactly!

Pics of Guardian Robot are up on TFW.

Looks great, but I probably won't get it unless it's a clearance sort of situation. Love my Omega Supreme, but its a lot of money and space for non-character repaint of a figure I already have.

Now, make a deluxe-sized Weaponizer Omega, and I would buy a copy in each Supreme / Guardian / Spreem flavor.

 

[Andrusi]

Yeah that's a nice-looking toy and I genuinely have absolutely no idea where I'd put it. I've been forced to conclude that Titans are just Too Big.

 

[The Predaking]

I like this! I wish that I had the space to have three of them, so I could setup an awesome diorama with them.

 

[The Phazer]

I like how it looks but the Titan class is not worth it's current RRP and it will come down in price significantly.

How much are they going for now?

 

[The Phazer]

How much are they going for now?

Isn't the US price $199 now? The UK one is £200 - 220, but every Titan in recent memory has gone down to half price or less a few months later, including the Selects ones.

One has to imagine that the current pricing is made on the assumption of heavy discounting.

 

[Gizmoboy]

Yes, $199 is the SRP right now.

I am already hurting for space. That was the whole reason I passed on Cybertron Metroplex. The Sentinels have always had a warm place in my heart from when I was a kid and watched G1. It is going to be really tough for me to pass on this one.

 

[The Predaking]

I still need to open and setup my WFC Omega Supreme.

 

[Sciflyer]

I love how this looks! It isn't a must-buy for me, but I like that it's a thing. As others have stated, I've got space constraints, so getting this just wouldn't be feasible. I would have to edge out a far more prominent, noticeably-absent character to accommodate this, and I can't justify doing that. Glad it exists (or will exist) though!

 

[Sciflyer]

Open him. Play with it. Set it up. He's one of the best Titan-Class figures in recent memory. He hits all of the nostalgia feels and is a fun, solid playset, too.

 

[Gizmoboy]

What I may do is purchase him and keep him in his box with the thought that if I move within the next 3 years as anticipated, I might get a larger space for my collection. If not, I can sell him off easier in a few years with him being MISB.

I plan on doing so, but I need to reorganize my office, which I have recently started on. Once I get the space setup correctly, I will get a lot of my pile opened up and properly displayed.
